1.0a3 (2010-11-16)
==================
Features
--------
- Added Mako TemplateLookup settings for ``mako.error_handler``,
``mako.default_filters``, and ``mako.imports``.
- Normalized all paster templates: each now uses the name ``main`` to
represent the function that returns a WSGI application, each now uses
WebError, each now has roughly the same shape of development.ini style.
- Added class vars ``matchdict`` and ``matched_route`` to
``pyramid.request.Request``. Each is set to ``None``.
- New API method: ``pyramid.settings.asbool``.
- New API methods for ``pyramid.request.Request``: ``model_url``,
``route_url``, and ``static_url``. These are simple passthroughs for their
respective functions in ``pyramid.url``.
- The ``settings`` object which used to be available only when
``request.settings.get_settings`` was called is now available as
``registry.settings`` (e.g. ``request.registry.settings`` in view code).
Bug Fixes
---------
- The pylons_* paster templates erroneously used the ``{squiggly}`` routing
syntax as the pattern supplied to ``add_route``. This style of routing is
not supported. They were replaced with ``:colon`` style route patterns.
- The pylons_* paster template used the same string
(``your_app_secret_string``) for the ``session.secret`` setting in the
generated ``development.ini``. This was a security risk if left unchanged
in a project that used one of the templates to produce production
applications. It now uses a randomly generated string.
Documentation
-------------
- ZODB+traversal wiki (``wiki``) tutorial updated due to changes to
``pyramid_zodb`` paster template.
- SQLAlchemy+urldispach wiki (``wiki2``) tutorial updated due to changes to
``pyramid_routesalchemy`` paster template.
- Documented the ``matchdict`` and ``matched_route`` attributes of the
request object in the Request API documentation.
Deprecations
------------
- Obtaining the ``settings`` object via
``registry.{get|query}Utility(ISettings)`` is now deprecated. Instead,
obtain the ``settings`` object via the ``registry.settings`` attribute. A
backwards compatibility shim was added to the registry object to register
the settings object as an ISettings utility when ``setattr(registry,
'settings', foo)`` is called, but it will be removed in a later release.
- Obtaining the ``settings`` object via ``pyramid.settings.get_settings`` is
now deprecated. Obtain it as the ``settings`` attribute of the registry
now (obtain the registry via ``pyramid.threadlocal.get_registry`` or as
``request.registry``).
Behavior Differences
--------------------
- Internal: ZCML directives no longer call get_current_registry() if there's
a ``registry`` attribute on the ZCML context (kill off use of
threadlocals).
- Internal: Chameleon template renderers now accept two arguments: ``path``
and ``lookup``. ``Lookup`` will be an instance of a lookup class which
supplies (late-bound) arguments for debug, reload, and translate. Any
third-party renderers which use (the non-API) function
``pyramid.renderers.template_renderer_factory`` will need to adjust their
implementations to obey the new callback argument list. This change was to
kill off inappropriate use of threadlocals.
1.0a2 (2010-11-09)
==================
Documentation
-------------
- All references to events by interface
(e.g. ``pyramid.interfaces.INewRequest``) have been changed to reference
their concrete classes (e.g. ``pyramid.events.NewRequest``) in
documentation about making subscriptions.
- All references to Pyramid-the-application were changed from mod-`pyramid`
to app-`Pyramid`. A custom role setting was added to ``docs/conf.py`` to
allow for this. (internal)
1.0a1 (2010-11-05)
==================
Features (delta from BFG 1.3)
-------------------------------
- Mako templating renderer supports resource specification format for
template lookups and within Mako templates. Absolute filenames must
be used in Pyramid to avoid this lookup process.
- Add ``pyramid.httpexceptions`` module, which is a facade for the
``webob.exc`` module.
- Direct built-in support for the Mako templating language.
- A new configurator method exists: ``add_handler``. This method adds
a Pylons-style "view handler" (such a thing used to be called a
"controller" in Pylons 1.0).
- New argument to configurator: ``session_factory``.
- New method on configurator: ``set_session_factory``
- Using ``request.session`` now returns a (dictionary-like) session
object if a session factory has been configured.
- The request now has a new attribute: ``tmpl_context`` for benefit of
Pylons users.
- The decorator previously known as ``pyramid.view.bfg_view`` is now
known most formally as ``pyramid.view.view_config`` in docs and
paster templates. An import of ``pyramid.view.bfg_view``, however,
will continue to work "forever".
- New API methods in ``pyramid.session``: ``signed_serialize`` and
``signed_deserialize``.
- New interface: ``pyramid.interfaces.IRendererInfo``. An object of this type
is passed to renderer factory constructors (see "Backwards
Incompatibilities").
- New event type: ``pyramid.interfaces.IBeforeRender``. An object of this type
is sent as an event before a renderer is invoked (but after the
application-level renderer globals factory added via
``pyramid.configurator.configuration.set_renderer_globals_factory``, if any,
has injected its own keys). Applications may now subscribe to the
``IBeforeRender`` event type in order to introspect the and modify the set of
renderer globals before they are passed to a renderer. The event object
iself has a dictionary-like interface that can be used for this purpose. For
example::
from repoze.events import subscriber
from pyramid.interfaces import IRendererGlobalsEvent
@subscriber(IRendererGlobalsEvent)
def add_global(event):
event['mykey'] = 'foo'
If a subscriber attempts to add a key that already exist in the renderer
globals dictionary, a ``KeyError`` is raised. This limitation is due to the
fact that subscribers cannot be ordered relative to each other. The set of
keys added to the renderer globals dictionary by all subscribers and
app-level globals factories must be unique.
- New class: ``pyramid.response.Response``. This is a pure facade for
``webob.Response`` (old code need not change to use this facade, it's
existence is mostly for vanity and documentation-generation purposes).
- All preexisting paster templates (except ``zodb``) now use "imperative"
configuration (``starter``, ``routesalchemy``, ``alchemy``).
- A new paster template named ``pyramid_starter_zcml`` exists, which uses
declarative configuration.
Documentation (delta from BFG 1.3)
-----------------------------------
- Added a ``pyramid.httpexceptions`` API documentation chapter.
- Added a ``pyramid.session`` API documentation chapter.
- Added a ``Session Objects`` narrative documentation chapter.
- Added an API chapter for the ``pyramid.personality`` module.
- Added an API chapter for the ``pyramid.response`` module.
- All documentation which previously referred to ``webob.Response`` now uses
``pyramid.response.Response`` instead.
- The documentation has been overhauled to use imperative configuration,
moving declarative configuration (ZCML) explanations to a separate
narrative chapter ``declarative.rst``.
- The ZODB Wiki tutorial was updated to take into account changes to the
``pyramid_zodb`` paster template.
- The SQL Wiki tutorial was updated to take into account changes to the
``pyramid_routesalchemy`` paster template.
Backwards Incompatibilities (with BFG 1.3)
------------------------------------------
- There is no longer an ``IDebugLogger`` registered as a named utility
with the name ``repoze.bfg.debug``.
- The logger which used to have the name of ``repoze.bfg.debug`` now
has the name ``pyramid.debug``.
- The deprecated API ``pyramid.testing.registerViewPermission``
has been removed.
- The deprecated API named ``pyramid.testing.registerRoutesMapper``
has been removed.
- The deprecated API named ``pyramid.request.get_request`` was removed.
- The deprecated API named ``pyramid.security.Unauthorized`` was
removed.
- The deprecated API named ``pyramid.view.view_execution_permitted``
was removed.
- The deprecated API named ``pyramid.view.NotFound`` was removed.
- The ``bfgshell`` paster command is now named ``pshell``.
- The Venusian "category" for all built-in Venusian decorators
(e.g. ``subscriber`` and ``view_config``/``bfg_view``) is now
``pyramid`` instead of ``bfg``.
- ``pyramid.renderers.rendered_response`` function removed; use
``render_pyramid.renderers.render_to_response`` instead.
- Renderer factories now accept a *renderer info object* rather than an
absolute resource specification or an absolute path. The object has the
following attributes: ``name`` (the ``renderer=`` value), ``package`` (the
'current package' when the renderer configuration statement was found),
``type``: the renderer type, ``registry``: the current registry, and
``settings``: the deployment settings dictionary.
Third-party ``repoze.bfg`` renderer implementations that must be ported to
Pyramid will need to account for this.
This change was made primarily to support more flexible Mako template
rendering.
- The presence of the key ``repoze.bfg.message`` in the WSGI environment when
an exception occurs is now deprecated. Instead, code which relies on this
environ value should use the ``exception`` attribute of the request
(e.g. ``request.exception[0]``) to retrieve the message.
- The values ``bfg_localizer`` and ``bfg_locale_name`` kept on the request
during internationalization for caching purposes were never APIs. These
however have changed to ``localizer`` and ``locale_name``, respectively.
- The default ``cookie_name`` value of the ``authtktauthenticationpolicy`` ZCML
now defaults to ``auth_tkt`` (it used to default to ``repoze.bfg.auth_tkt``).
- The default ``cookie_name`` value of the
``pyramid.authentication.AuthTktAuthenticationPolicy`` constructor now
defaults to ``auth_tkt`` (it used to default to ``repoze.bfg.auth_tkt``).
- The ``request_type`` argument to the ``view`` ZCML directive, the
``pyramid.configuration.Configurator.add_view`` method, or the
``pyramid.view.view_config`` decorator (nee ``bfg_view``) is no longer
permitted to be one of the strings ``GET``, ``HEAD``, ``PUT``, ``POST`` or
``DELETE``, and now must always be an interface. Accepting the
method-strings as ``request_type`` was a backwards compatibility strategy
servicing repoze.bfg 1.0 applications. Use the ``request_method``
parameter instead to specify that a view a string request-method predicate.
